The correct flame will be almost horizontal, blue and will extend
past the thermopile 1/4" (6mm). The flame will surround the
thermopile just below the tip.
On propane (LP-gas) slight yellow might occur where the pilot
flame and burner flame meet.
Natural gas pilots require adjusting when the inlet pressure is
above 5" w.c. (1.25kPa) Turn adjustment screw clockwise to
reduce flame.
Propane (LP-gas) will not require adjusting.
There will be a short blue inner flame with a much larger lighter
blue secondary flame. The burner flame may have a yellow tip when
hot. See the burner drawing showing the approximate heights of
each part of the flame. Dust in the combustion air will produce an
orange or red flame. Do not mistake the orange or red flame for
an improper yellow flame. After use, cleaning may be required
for the proper flame.

Primary Air Adjustment (Figure 13)
An air adjustment bolt is located on the chamber support bottom.
The four inch (102mm) clearance between the furnace and the floor
allows access to the air adjustment bolt. The air adjustment bolt is
above the rectangular opening on the inner casing bottom.
On Propane gas, if a whistling noise (resonation) occurs, screw
air adjustment bolt into the chamber support in order to reduce the
amount of primary air. If the whistling noise (resonation) is not
eliminated when the air adjustment bolt is screwed into the chamber
support this may indicate the air adjustment bolt is misaligned. Grasp
air adjustment bolt and pivot (push) air adjustment bolt away from
yourself. Observe the main burner flame as you push air adjustment
bolt and when the main burner flame begins to develop a yellow
flame, you should stop pushing on the air adjustment bolt. Screw
air adjustment bolt out of the chamber support until the yellow
flame on the main burner is eliminated. The air adjustment bolt
should now be properly aligned. The reduction in primary air
will soften the main burner flame and will eliminate the whistling
noise (resonation).
On Propane or Natural gas, if a yellow flame occurs, screw air
adjustment bolt out of the chamber support but do not completely
remove air adjustment bolt from chamber support. The repositioning
of the air adjustment bolt will increase the amount of primary air.
The increase in primary air will sharpen the main burner flame and
will eliminate the yellow flame.
